Bring a sense of dread to your tabletop with this menacing Scarecrow miniature, featuring oversized hooked talons and a chilling stitched sack face. Sculpted in a dynamic prowl with tattered clothing and bound straw limbs, this construct is the perfect atmospheric threat for haunted fields and rural horror encounters.
A cursed scarecrow has just detached itself from its post and is shambling across a moonlit field toward a trespasser.
Ideal as a surprise guardian in a haunted cornfield, a minion for a swamp hag, or a recurring environmental hazard in a gothic horror campaign.
